Feel It Down Deep In Your Soul

I wavered a bit with this week, but sometimes what feels right isn't what you are wanting to do. These bands all share some common elements, but most of what came to my mind was soul. Not James Brown soul but the soul that comes from music that you can feel; music that comes from deep within. These bands all exhibit some twang country and bluegrass elements, but also have funky and soul elements as well. The kind of soul that invokes the stink face. You know the face, where it could be a stinky fart, or bad cheese or the riff/beat that is so nasty that a normal facial expression simply won't work. 

Besides that, this music has a genuine upbeat and feel good vibe to it. It's hard to imagine yelling or anger accompanying this. So crank it up and listen to it loud. Have a great week.
